This article is long, but is a very good read. Very good article about why immigration reform is needed and very nice thoughts.

here are two good quotes from the article
"How else could millions of low-skilled Mexicans “take” jobs away from citizens of the world’s richest country? In response, we want to build a fence to keep them out rather than looking at what we did economically and demographically to create a market for their labor."
"immigration reform based on economics rather than anything else” would create thousands of jobs without costing a penny. Taking steps to increase the flow of highly skilled immigrants, he said, “would do more to strengthen the economy than anything that is being discussed in Washington today.”""
